Chapter 430: Chapter 430 Radiant University College

Of course, the main reason is that this Crystal Wall Universe won’t last much longer—it will be devoured by him in a thousand years.

More precisely, in five to six hundred years, the entire Crystal Wall will start to shrink and collapse due to his consumption, the Will of the Crystal Wall and Origin Force being devoured. Chaos will ensue in the world’s rules, and the world will fall into apocalypse. At that time, most of the other medium and small planes will be destroyed, leaving only the central Main World that can hold out a little longer until it collapses along with the entire Crystal Wall System.

Is it worth it to spend a great deal to change the existing rules of a world doomed to destruction?

However, if no change is made, seeing a dozen or so planes of varying sizes lying before him, unused for at least the next five hundred years, seems like a tremendous waste.

The key point is that his True Body will have to stay in the Moon Cloud Realm for a thousand years, and it would be quite boring to be idle the whole time.

“Perhaps I should have my teacher come up with an idea?”

Jin Sisi had once also been a student and taken this step. Having seen such situations not infrequently, she might have some good advice.

On the other side, Lin Xiao’s Divine Position Incarnation and his girlfriend returned together to the Subspace of the Main World, preparing to transit through the Yan Huang No. 5 Super War Fortress before heading back to the Main World.

But before leaving, he paid a visit to Xie Yufei, then requested his very own commodore-specific Void Battleship from the fortress command.

This was the advanced commodore-tier Void Battleship he was entitled to, its allocation only having been delayed because he had no subordinates to claim it. Now, considering he would need to venture to the Depths of the Void to look for suitable planes during his university years, having a military-grade advanced Void Battleship would be more convenient.

As for the crew on the Void Ship…

He incidentally took command of his guard as well, comprising two True Gods and twenty High-Level Demigods.

There was currently a large plane that could more than provide for the guard’s two True Gods, with some to spare.

After all, these two True Gods and Demigods were not children of the Divine Realm; most had joined the military from Crystal Walls or planes the Main World had completely conquered, grown through hard work. After surviving multiple trials and brushes with death, they finally had the chance for promotion to True God.

As a price for serving the Main World, they were granted citizenship there, and their descendants could receive education as children of the Divine Realm alongside the humans of the Main World.

The Main World did not completely reject natives; standard humans willing to accept and maintain the rule of the Main World could become part of its citizenship.

For those humans born in Different Domains, which the Main World had conquered and ruled, it was not a case of exclusion; in fact, they were greatly desired.

Being human, they inherently yearned for Light and Civilization, and apart from a stubborn few, most were eager to become a part of a higher civilization.

The two new True Gods had only recently ascended. Both possessed Weak Divine Power at the lowest rank of True Godhood, with a Godhood Level of Zero. Previously, the military district had supplied them with divine power to maintain the minimum consumption of their Divinity, ensuring they wouldn’t be demoted due to an inability to sustain their God Level.

Now that Lin Xiao had taken them in, the military district would no longer supply divine power. All consumption would be his responsibility.

Before he couldn’t afford them and didn’t dare to take responsibility, but now with a group of planes and twenty to thirty million intelligent beings providing the Power of Faith, he could comfortably support two True Gods and twenty Demigods, with surplus to spare.

Likewise, this meant they would serve him in the days to come, braving fire and water, even unto death if necessary.

Guards, his most core subordinates and confidants, the ones who would take a bullet for him.

Thus, after acquisition, they would first go to the Moon Cloud Realm to sign a contract witnessed by the Gaia Will, known as the Gaia Oath, akin to the renowned Styx Oath. With the Gaia Will as witness, they could never betray him.

In this way, Lin Xiao and other high-ranking generals could cultivate them without reservation. Especially Lin Xiao, who only had two True Gods under his command. He had so much Power of Faith from the dozen or so planes he controlled that it was more than enough to support them and still have a surplus.

After signing the Gaia Oath and becoming his trusted guards, they naturally adopted his surname.

One of the True Gods was named Lin Bao, with a God Level of Zero and his Godhood as Guardian.

The other was named Lin Hong, also with a God Level of Zero, his Godhood as Strength.

From their Godhood, one could discern their styles—one offensive and one defensive.

Of course, these were just their initial Godhood professions. As they were not children of the Divine Realm, their Godhood could be influenced by their followers and they might gain new Godhood professions in the future.

Letting the two guard captains lead the guards aboard the Void Battleship to the Moon Cloud Realm, Lin Xiao’s Life Incarnation and his girlfriend left the Fortress and returned to the Main World.

Back in the Radiant Academy’s God Country within the Divine Realm, arriving at the Floating City where the high school department was located, Lin Xiao looked up at the Vault of Heaven. In the simulated Solar System far away within the God Country, there was a group of celestial palaces orbiting like planets along the sun’s trajectory—that was the college section of Radiant.

They would first return to the Floating City their dormitory was in to organize their belongings, and then they could directly head to the College section of Radiant University to report in.

He hadn’t felt much before, but now looking at the interior of the Radiant Divine Realm once again, just the high school section alone boasted so many Floating Cities, and in the distant Void a whole array of celestial palaces, each a massive Floating City.

And this was only a small part of what he had seen; Radiant had more than this one God Country in the Main World.

This God Country was merely a place where Radiant cultivated new blood. After graduating from college, they would have to leave here for other places. Radiant’s middle and upper echelons have another world beyond his imagination. From this tip of the iceberg, one could glimpse how formidable the strength of Radiant—the greatest power in the Main World—truly was.

Not to mention that Radiant boasts a huge Radiant Crystal Wall System, a powerful crystal wall system capable of generating great divine power. Perhaps it’s not as mighty or renowned as the Toriel Multiverse, but within the Chaos Sea of Void, it’s incredibly strong too.

Riding in a small aircraft sent by Jin Sisi, they soared into the sky, shooting towards the Vault of Heaven like a meteor.

The aircraft swiftly broke free from the planet’s gravity to enter the Void and rapidly approached the palace complexes in the distance.

Although the Divine Realm of Radiance simulated the ancient Solar System, it was, after all, just a simulation, not the true Void. Its essence was the Divine Realm, and all Radiant students within the realm had privileges. In particular, he and his girlfriend had not only been promoted directly to the university section but were also specially recruited, granting them higher clearance than regular Radiant University students.

Not far from the campus, the aircraft entered a sub-luminal state and sped across the distance measured in hundreds of millions of kilometers. During the journey, it made several short jumps and arrived near the celestial palace complex in just ten minutes.

From afar, the structure appeared as an array of palaces floating along the solar orbit, but from up close, they saw it was a superstructure made up of hundreds of Floating Cities joined together.

Lin Xiao instantly recognized this as the university section of Radiant. It was also a super Floating City Fortress complex, with towering spires that were Mage Towers.

Over a hundred Floating Cities and several thousand Mage Towers combined to form a whole, presided over by numerous True Gods. The university section of Radiant in a Different Domain could totally serve as a large-scale Divine System’s Divine Realm.

As their aircraft approached the Floating City cluster, a beam of light hit the aircraft, taking over and pulling them towards a docking site in one of the Floating Cities.

They soon entered a vast hollow tunnel, lined with a transparent light curtain, through which streaks of light flashed backward like lightning.

Not long after, they arrived at the end of the tunnel. A layer of white light swept over the aircraft, and a mechanical voice announced:

“Scanning target identity level, safe, permission granted to proceed!”

After three repetitions, the aircraft came to a stop, the cabin door opened, and to his surprise, they were no longer in the tunnel but had arrived in a vast parking lot filled with various styles of flying vehicles, each hovering less than three feet above the ground.

Lines of text outlined by white light floated past in the air:

“Welcome all new students to Radiant University!”

“Radiant University Elite Societies welcome all new students.”

“Radiant University Holy Sword Society welcomes all new students.”

“Radiant University Meken Society welcomes all new students.”

Apart from the largest line representing the welcome banner of Radiant University, the rest were welcome streamers from various student organizations within the school. Shen Yuexin pointed at the lines of light in the sky and said to him:

“University societies are student forces within the school. Many have a very long history, with some ancient societies dating back to the founding of Radiant University. Quite a few of their founding members are still alive, now either part of Radiant’s high-ranked officials or famed powerhouses of the Outland, with terrifying strength and influence.”

She earnestly advised Lin Xiao:

“In university, joining a society is a must, or you will easily be bullied.”

Lin Xiao was aware of this and didn’t plan to go it alone; throughout his journey, he understood the value of seeking shelter under a big tree, so he was open to the idea.

“That being said, do you have any good societies to recommend? Or whichever society you join, I’ll join too?”

His girlfriend laughed and waved her hand:

“The society I’m joining is for girls only, you can’t join.”

“But don’t worry, with your achievements in middle school, I believe many societies will actively recruit you, including some ancient ones. They will introduce themselves to you, so you can see which one suits you.”

“Oh! That…”

Lin Xiao asked somewhat awkwardly while rubbing his hands together:

“Did your dad or your brother ever create or join any societies?”

Shen Yuexin gave him a weird look and then suddenly covered her mouth, giggling before bursting into uncontrollable laughter.

He argued with his arms akimbo and righteous indignation:

“I’m just trying to get closer to my father-in-law and brother-in-law, what’s so funny about that?”

He certainly wouldn’t admit he was looking to cling to their coattails.

His girlfriend, trying to hold back her laughter, shook her head with a knowing look and said:

“There’s no need to think about it. Radiant was founded by my father; he is the principal himself, so what society would he create? My brother did start a society with friends; it’s now a super first-rate society among all, but it only admits the offspring of super powerhouses. You definitely can’t get in, and my brother wouldn’t let you either. He has already told me he doesn’t want you to use his name to get by.”
